I'm sure there's an easy answer, but my googlefu is weak today and TMP shuts down in three minutes. What Vallejo colours are appropriate for the classic USAF three-tone and pale underbelly in Vietnam? I've got a 1:144 F4 begging to be painted. |

Try Silvergrey 883/152 (for the belly), US Dark Green 893/95, Us Tan-Earth 874/134, and Russian Uniform 924/94. The grey, dak green and tan are based on Federal Standard equivalencies, the Russian Uniform is my personal estimation. |

Vallejo Model air suggest:
026 for FS 30219 Tan
017 for FS 34102 Light Green
016 For FS 34079 Dark Green
050 for FS 36622 Light Grey |

I'll put in a vote for: 34079-892 or 894…I'm torn between the two. I'd probably mix them 1:1; I see that the chart calls for 893, but that really isn't green enough. For 34102-890; For 30219-874; 36622-883 |

Try this thread: TMP link I ended up using some higher contrast colors to improve the scale look. |
